HJC CL-17 Punisher Helmet.

MARVEL®

Officially Licensed Product

The HJC CL-17 Helmet has an elegant design made to attract the eye of any rider out there. The HJC CL-17 motorcycle helmet meets or exceeds both SNELL and D.O.T. standards and comes with many different features like fully removable crown and cheek pads for washing as well as the Rapid Fire II quick replacement shield system to allow for quick changes from a tinted shield to a clear one when riding in transition from day to night.

Wrap a tape measure horizontally around your forehead. Select the helmet that is the closest fit to that size. A helmet should fit snug on your head. If it moves while wearing, it is too large. If it is painful to wear, it is too small.

Just recently ordered my medium HJC boost helmet in red. I'm usually skeptical about ordering things online that I can't try on before purchasing them. That being said, I measured my head 122.5," so I went with the medium. The chart is super accurate & the helmet fitment is perfect. Can't forget the design as well, looks so mean in red. So far, I've taken it to one track day and I have to say, I'm impressed. Even though it's not the quietest helmet, the ventilation and comfort make up for it. For a budget helmet, I would highly recommend. HJC boost for the win, many more track days to come.

Ride with open face usually, wanted a full face to cut down on windburn, fatigue, and etc. A tad heavy compared to my open face but definitely feels lighter than my old CL12. Overall, cheek guards push in a little more than I am used to, but that is just helmet break in stuff. Great ventilation, many adjustment points for the face shield, button snap on chin strap a plus. Will be putting in my long miles with this helmet, then putting on my peanut for around town cruising. BTW, I ride a sport bike too, great helmet for this purpose too. Over my 30 plus years of riding HJC has always made a good product for the price point.

I liked my HJC IS-16 so much I wanted to replace it with another but they are hard to find so I went with the CL-17. Helmet fits my head shape (oval) great just like my IS-16 and the venting is improved. The CL-17 doesn't have the flip down sun shield like the IS-16 so I also ordered a smoke face shield. Swapped out the clear face shield in 30 seconds and I am well pleased. Overall, this is an excellent helmet at a value price.

Very nice helmet, good air flow, moderately quiet. I added the tinted shield, swapping shields was easy. Wish there was more cushioning in the chin area, there was a velcro strap but no padding.

This is my 2nd HJC helmet and it is great! Your company delivered it fast, all info was correct and easy to cipher, and the price point is wonderful. I have 6 other helmets from various manufacturers, none of them fit as well as this one. The inside is top of the line and the outside finish is the best. I recommend going to the next larger size as I did after measuring because they fit tight.

I am already a satisfied HJC helmet owner using my 5 year old CL-SP almost on every ride. What I liked even more about the CL-17 is not only is it smaller in physical size, the XL fits my head even more snug than my CL-SP did new. Being a perfect XL head size 24 3/8 round oval head shape, this helmet fits like it was custom fitted. When I first put it on, it was tight so I wore it for 15 minutes or so to be sure the first time I went off for a ride I didn't end up with a pressure point or headache. On my first ride, no problems at all. Fit so perfect! Also I was very very pleased with the yellow! I was afraid from some of the videos I have seen of it that it would be a bit pale. Not the case. Actually I'd love to paint my 40 Ford pickup this shade of yellow it's so attractive. 100% satisfied, considering buying another CL-17 in Black from Jafrum of course!

Great price, sturdy well padded a fit perfect. Pin lock anti fog visor affordable because of the low price. Yellow is really hi-vis which is great. I have a more expensive helmet but this helmet is a great 2nd lid I can rain ride or mistreat. DOT and Snell. What's not to like?

Very nice helmet. Good fit and right on with measurements. I am right between L - XL and went with L. Quite tight at first but getting better with wear. Face shield operates well. Good venting. Fogs a bit at stops, slow speeds but dissipates when moving.
